Chrome OS now Lets You Lock Stolen Chrome Devices

As Chromebooks are becoming popular from the Q4 of last year now the Chrome OS developers made some security developments which lets you lock stolen chromebooks.

Ever had a gadget stolen from you? A daily driver, maybe? It can be a harrowing experience, and not only because you’re forced to splash the cash on a replacement. If you notice or report the theft too late and are not cautious enough to encrypt your passwords, the financial losses can hit tragic peaks. Even if you’re quick, you have to deal with the hassle of getting in touch with your bank, or changing passkeys before the new illicit owner wreaks too much havoc. In short, it’s a nightmare.

Now instead of calling 911, you may want to turn to Google PD. Rightful Chromebook proprietors with Chrome OS version 40 and up are now able to block access to their machines at the flick of a switch.
